Truetrac gear oil

Nissan calls for synthetic. I spoke with Eaton and they say dino oil for a TT. What are you guys that installed it using?

I would still go with synthetic. It can only help not hurt. Unless you are looking to save some cash, in my mind, you don't change it frequently enough to worry about the extra cost.

I'm thinking the cheap stuff for 500 miles or so then back to synthetic. It is a torsen style diff and everything I see on the net says synthetic is fine.

^^^That is a good thought too. Get through the initial break in with cheap.

The tech said synth might make it not work well and be noisy.

My concern with dino is nissan not warrantying the rear without synthetic if something happens

Austin has had the Tru Trac for awhile. I wonder if he is running synthetic?

Would Nissan still warrenty a diff that has had most of the internals replace with aftermarket parts?? I would have thought not, but what do I know.
